CBS has canceled The Late Show.
President Donald Trump took to TRUTH Social on Friday to revel in the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert — and, true to form, he didn’t hold back.
“I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings,” Trump wrote. “I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert! Greg Gutfeld is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show.”
Trump has long cast Colbert as the court jester who forgot how to entertain, previously dismissing him as “very boring” and “a total loser.”
“He is not funny, which he gets paid far too much to be, he is not wise, he is VERY BORING, and his show is dying from a complete lack of viewers,” Trump said last September.
CBS released a statement saying Colbert “will be remembered in the pantheon of greats that graced late-night television.”
Earlier this week, Colbert took aim at CBS’s parent company, Paramount, for agreeing to pay a $16 million settlement to Trump over a 60 Minutes interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris, which Trump claimed was deceptively edited to favor the Democratic presidential nominee.
Colbert called the settlement a “big fat bribe,” adding, “I don’t know if anything will repair my trust in this company. But, just taking a stab at it, I’d say $16 million would help.”
Colbert addressed CBS’s decision to cancel his show on Thursday night, telling his audience, “Before we start the show, I want to let you know something that I found out just last night. Next year will be our last season. The network will be ending ‘The Late Show’ in May.”
“I’m not being replaced. This is all just going away,” he added.
